Crazy Food Truck, Vol. 1

Post-apocalyptic food truck vendor with a mysterious—yet skilled—past stumbles upon a naked girl in the middle of the desert one day. What ensues is a quick paced, action comedy road trip of sorts as the two begin to learn more about one another while hunting for food, cooking delicious looking meals, struggling to find customers in the wasteland, oh, and being chased by an elite government military task force. A classic loner older man with a simple life meets naive young girl who gives him reason to fight again and live life scenario: there's definitely a Leon the Professional angle to the story with these two characters. Worth noting that there is a lot of nudity from Arisa—the mysterious “plot” girl—but the protagonist food truck chef balances it out by acting like her concerned father and always making an effort to cover her and teach her basic human lessons in comical ways. Crazy Food Truck doesn't reinvent anything nor does it particularly have an overwhelming originality angle, but it's drawn well, and leaves enough crumbs to the world that I'm intrigued to see it explained more. While I'm not rushing to get the following volumes, I will eventually check back in down the line. Like Sakamoto Days, I can see this becoming an anime adaptation.
